Definitions

  • the invention relates to the technical field of cold continuous rolling, in particular to an emulsion flow optimization method for suppressing vibration of a cold continuous rolling mill.
  • Rolling mill vibration defect is always one of the difficult problems that perplex the high-speed and stable production of an on-site cold continuous rolling mill and ensure the surface quality of finished strip.
  • on-site treatment of rolling mill vibration defects generally depends on the control over the speed of the rolling mill, by which the vibration defects can be weakened, but the improvement of production efficiency is restricted and the economic benefits of enterprises are seriously affected.
  • the cold continuous rolling mill its device and process features determine the potential of vibration suppression. Therefore, setting reasonable process parameters is the core means for vibration suppression.
  • the rolling mill vibration is directly related to the lubrication state between the roll gaps.
  • the friction coefficient is too small, thus it is likely to cause slip in the rolling process to cause the self-excited vibration of the rolling mill;
  • the roll gap is in an under-lubrication state, it is indicated that the average oil film thickness between the roll gaps is less than the required minimum value, thus it is likely to cause sharp increase of the friction coefficient due to rupture of oil films in the roll gaps during the rolling process, which leads to the change of rolling pressure and periodic fluctuation of system stiffness, and thus also causes self-excited vibration of the rolling mill. It can be seen that the key to suppress the vibration of the rolling mill is to control the lubrication state between the roll gaps.
  • the rolling process and process parameters such as the emulsion concentration and the initial temperature are determined
  • the setting of emulsion flow rate directly determines the roll gap lubrication state of each rolling stand of the cold continuous rolling mill, and is the main process control means of the cold continuous rolling mill.
  • CN 105522000 A discloses a cold continuous rolling mill vibration suppression method, which comprises the following steps: 1) arranging a cold rolling mill vibration monitoring device on the fifth or fourth rolling stand of the cold continuous rolling mill, and determining whether the rolling mill is about to vibrate by the energy of a vibration signal; 2) arranging a liquid injection device which can independently adjust the flow rate in front of an inlet emulsion injection beam of the fifth or fourth rolling stand of the cold rolling mill; and 3) calculating the forward slip value to determine whether to turn on/off the liquid injection device.
  • CN 105522000 A discloses a comprehensive emulsion flow optimization method for ultra-thin strip rolling of a cold continuous rolling mill.
  • the existing device parameters and process parameter data of a cold continuous rolling mill control system are used to define the process parameters of comprehensive emulsion flow optimization considering the slip, vibration and hot slide injury as well as shape and pressure control, and determine the optimal flow rate distribution value of each rolling stand under the current tension schedule and rolling reduction schedule.
  • the comprehensive optimization setting of emulsion flow rate for ultra-thin strip rolling is realized by computer program control.
  • the above patents mainly focus on monitoring equipment, forward slip calculation model, emulsion flow rate control and other aspects to realize rolling mill vibration control; vibration is only a constraint condition of emulsion flow rate control, and is not the main treatment object.
  • CN 104 289 527 A forming the basis for the preamble of claim 1, discloses a method for optimizing the setting of emulsion concentration in the cold rolling of a dual-four-roller set of automotive plates, which includes the following steps: step one, collecting the main equipment parameters of the dual-stand process parameters, process lubrication system parameters; step two, initialize the initial value of the maximum rolling speed, search process parameters and search step length; step three, calculate the first concentration process parameters, and initialize the search process parameters of the maximum rolling speed; step 4: calculate the search process speed of the maximum rolling speed; step 5: calculate the friction coefficient, slip factor, slip index and vibration coefficient of the first and second stands under the current process lubrication system and rolling speed; step 6, judge whether the slip factor, slip index and vibration coefficient meet the preset conditions; if yes, continue to the following steps; if no, go to step 10; step 7, calculate the current tension system, process lubrication system and rolling speed under the first , the rolling pressure and rolling power of the second stand; step 8, determine
  • the purpose of the invention is to provide an emulsion flow optimization method for suppressing vibration of a cold continuous rolling mill.
  • the method aims to suppress vibrations, and by means of an oil film thickness model and a friction coefficient model, comprehensive optimization setting for the emulsion flow rate for each rolling stand is realized on the basis of an over-lubrication film thickness critical value and an under-lubrication film thickness critical value that are proposed so as to achieve the goals of treating rolling mill vibration defects, and improving the surface quality of a finished strip.
  • the present invention provides an emulsion flow optimization method for suppressing vibration of a cold continuous rolling mill according to claim 1.
  • An emulsion flow optimization method for suppressing vibration of a cold continuous rolling mill includes the following steps:
  • the step S6 includes the following steps:
  • the step S8 includes the following steps:
  • the step S9 includes the following steps:
  • next step is not conditional on the result of the previous step, it is not necessary to follow the steps, unless the next step depends on the previous step.
  • the technical solution of the invention is adopted, and the emulsion flow optimization method for suppressing vibration of the cold continuous rolling mill fully combines the device and process features of the cold continuous rolling mill, and aiming at the problems of vibration defects, starting from the comprehensive optimization setting for the emulsion flow rate of each rolling stand and changing the previous idea of constant emulsion flow control for each rolling stand of the cold continuous rolling mill, the method obtains the optimal set value of the emulsion flow rate for each rolling stand that aims to achieve vibration suppression by optimization; and the method greatly reduces the incidence of rolling mill vibration defects, improves production efficiency and product quality, brings greater economic benefits for enterprises, treats rolling mill vibration defects, and improves the surface quality and rolling process stability of a finished strip of a cold continuous rolling mill.
  • Rolling mill vibration defects are very easily caused between roll gaps of each rolling stand of a cold continuous rolling mill, whether in an over-lubrication state or in an under-lubrication state, and the setting of the emulsion flow rate directly affects the lubrication state between the roll gaps of each rolling stand.
  • this patent ensures that both the overall lubrication state of the cold continuous rolling mill and the lubrication state of individual rolling stands can be optimum through the comprehensive optimal distribution of the emulsion flow rate of the cold continuous rolling mill, so as to achieve the goal of treating the rolling mill vibration defects, improving the surface quality and rolling process stability of a finished strip of the cold continuous rolling mill.
